BROWNSVILLE wants outside commu-
nioation with the inside world as well
as inside communication with the out
side world. Her people offer bonus of
$4,000 to any railroad that will make
the connection. Here is chance for the
Arkansas Pass to extend its Communica-
lions to the Rio Grsnde and skirting the
main land the entire length OF Padre
Island be prepared to take advantage OF
whatever benefits may arise to the car
rying trade OF south Texas from that
deep sea pier in which Corpus Christi is
interested. If not this route the most
feasible would be to tap the Mexican
Texas In the neighbOrhOOn of San Diego
and so reach the cities Of Brownsville
and MatamOrss. There is no little trade
In both these cities that could be secured
TO San Antonio merchants by a railroad
connection. Brownsville makes very
liberal offer for little city of 5,CG0 pop
ulation. The SlO),C90 is a bona fide
bonus to the road coming in to connect
them with the trade lines Of this south
west, and the intimatioD lie held out that
this amount could be materially in
creased. An inspection Of that section
of the state might show that the pros
pect is one we'll worth pushing. The
two cities with joint population of 20,
OCO, only separated by the Rio Grsnde,
should certainly be able to give road
entering Brownsville very consider
able freight from the very beginning,
with the certainty of increase In the
years that are to come.

with preiudicing thoughtful men
AGAINST advanced educational measures
for women, and this not because OF any
objection to wOmsn's suffrage, per SO,

universal suffrage ia not conducive to
the best interests of the nation, and that
the efforts of our statesmen should lie
In the direction Of restricted suffrage,

cases are reported every few minutes
and the physicians reinforced from the
neighbOring towns are unable to attend
to the sick, who multiply beyond all
precedent. The Italian labOrers are sup
posed to have brought in the disease,
and 1t may be that the same conditions
which have bred the pestilence in Eu-

populations, have originated 1t here. Or
it may be that the germs of the disease
were imported in the persons of these
